Bet I've got a million of these. Couple of the more memorable...
My friend has himself a chopper, and sometimes I like to jump in while he pootles around Dalaran and I look at shinies on atlas loot. Well, one day while we were doing this, he decided to park on the edge of the sewer pipe leading out of Dalran and get as close to the edge as possible, with the sidecar hovering over nothing.
Mmm, he misjudged. We both fell out. Now, he's a mage...guess who won the race to the floor ;)
Oh, and once I had an argument with a guildie about whether the trash in OS was linked to Sarth or not (I said yea, he said nay). So, in a fit of "I'm going to prove you wrong, buddy!", I got someone to raid group with me, stomped up to Sarth and slapped him upside the head. No really, I charged.
But I
did
prove it's all linked >.>

Not one of the best deaths posted here, certainly, but....
I got a tell from another player asking me to let her defeat me in a duel outside Shattrath (for the achievement) in exchange for letting me do the same. I figured "Eh, why not?" and accepted.
She went first...and her last move was one with a knockback effect. The hill we were on wasn't even very big, but apparently it was big enough!

"oh crap".
I released and *poof*, Xroads graveyard.
Hohoo this happened to me too once. I never HS from the IC ships again, rather fly down off the ship first.

I got a decent one.
Back in Blackwing Lair, I was a 2nd or 3rd string tank on the second boss. He/She (big friggin dragon), Vaelstrath the Corrupt, has to be engaged by talking with him. So the whole raid buffs up standing more or less on one side of the room, discussing the strategy, move in position and pull. Well we wiped, which isn't anything surprising, it was a rough boss. After the 'walk of shame' through searing gorge, we get back into the room, with a very large and a now very AGGROABLE dragon. You may see where this is going.
Well I didn't walk straight in and aggro him! Instead I wisely stuck to one side of the room and chilled back waiting for buffs. I got a bit bored, and started doing some comparisons between my gear and the MT; for self reference and to see what pieces I could pick up to improve. A little theorycrafting on the benefits of FR on this boss that wasn't terribly FR intensive. Suddenly, I lose my inspect. WTF? Ah, he moved to the other side of the room. I stood up and walked over to him, not particularly watching where I was going *walking directly through the boss*.
"Man was that you?"
"No way! .... oh wait, yea, that was. @#^! Sorry!"
Raid wipe.
tl;dr - Raid bosses aggro.

It's always annoying to be blown off a cliff with
Typhoon
,
Blast Wave
, or
Thunderstorm
. But the most ridiculous way I've seen so far is
slow falling
off a
cliff
and having another mage randomly spellsteal your buff before you realize it.

Back in BC, when shatt was lag central, I tried to jump off aldor rise on my pally. When I hit my bubble, I got a particularly bad lag spike, and somehow, due to the lag, I stuck in the air long enough for my bubble to run out, then it dropped me to my death.
Exactly. Same thing I was gonna post here.

Flying to Borean tundra and not realising where i was going. Now.... i have no idea why i was so high in the air. I think it was to avoid mountains. Needless to say i flew in WG. Now the dismount happened and i got the slow fall buff........ to realise the duration on it. I fell for about a minute before i landed in thankfully, the water........as soon as horde attacked WG keep. There i was in the water with 40+ horde passing by. Needless to say i was as$ r4ped by them.

I got launched off the Lumber Mill in Arathi Basin by a Shaman, I hit levitate, floated all the way to the Gold Mine at a very fast speed, got Death Gripped out of the air by a DK and devoured alive by the mine defense.
Classic.

Not me but a DK and pally tank in a Heroic AN run, we had just killed the giant spider and were all jumping into the big cave diving looking area to get to the final boss, well me and my cousin a mage make it down ok but next thing we see is the DK, pally tank and our priest jump, well the DK dies from PoF on the water, the Priest makes it down ok but the funny thing is we are waiting for the tank and the next thing that drops is a body, thats right no one moving it just a body lying down, turns out SOMEHOW he hit two of the walls on his way down and died in mid air..... thats the only time i have ever seen anything like that and i have tried to intentially jump into the walls

I have a nasty, nasty habit of hitting Resurrection instead of Levitation.... My mage friend, rightfully, mocks me for it every time. I have a ridiculous number of Deaths by Falling. And I'm a priest.
A fun death occured the other night though. We were attempting to do a fast run of Nexus, we're in a hurry. Well I'm a decent healer and my tank is fantastic so after the Anomalus fight I sit to drink a little and the tank goes off to start clearing more stuff knowing I'll get there in time to heal him from what little damage those mobs will do.
Well, he accidentally pulled more than he intended, so I'm rushing to get there in time and hit Guardian Spirit while I'm airborne jumping off the platform (hit it the moment he wasn't out of range, which happened to be mid-air).
I can't see what's below my jump as I make it, though. Yeah. I jump off and just keep falling onto that instant-death surface far, far below Anomalus' platform. That was...surprising.
On the bright side, my mid-air Guardian Spirit cast went off, so I'm the only one who died!

i was in a raid to get the "For The Alliance!" achievement, we had cleared all the guys except for the one in TB, we knew the horde would probably have figured out what was goin on by the time we got there so we waited a little bit before making our charge. Stupidly the raid leader decided we should grou up in the crags between the TB platform/mountain things. Well a low lvl spotted us and ran away to tell all the other hordies we were there. We decided we needed to hurry the hell up and go so we boarded the elevator, all in pvp, all on the same one, all at the same time. Now thats 40 people on a little platform. Before we had gotten on i saw a lonely horde shammy on the platform. thinking he was afk i boarded anyway. Well he wasnt and when we were almost at the top he popped pvp and did his little jedi force push thing so we all got launched off the side off the elevator.as im fallin i pop all my possible life saving cooldowns, im a DK so i dont have a bubble or anything. i land on the ground and am at about 2% health. i look at how everyone else did thinking they should be about the same as me but all but me and a stupid pally are dead...
that shammy (dont even think he was 80) killed at least 38 alliance all at the same time with one spell... needless to say we gave up on TB after that and the horde hunted all of us out when we tried to re-group at red rock with a "look a lvl72 flagged mage!"
*remaining alliace charge him hoping to get an easy HK*
*%^&*load of horde come from the distance and spring their trap to slaughter us all...*
result= Alliance fails at pvp and city raids
